Jazz in 2500? iTunes versus Preservation: "The digital music era should offer listeners more information about jazz, not less. The stakes are high. If jazz fragments into millions of digital files, future generations could be left with a maddening cultural jigsaw puzzle. This music could quickly become one of the mysterious art forms that is translated to the public by a small group of experts." (via ArtsJournal.com)

Would You Confuse A Microprocessor With
A Jazz Festival?

Would You Confuse A Microprocessor With
A Jazz Festival? 12/19/2003 11:39 AM
The point of trademark law is to prevent confusion or someone thinking that an endorsement had been made when it hadn't. So, would you confuse a music festival with a microprocessor? Probably not. The Tanglewood Music Festival is a very famous music festival held in Massachusetts each year. I know people who try to go every year. However, my first thought on hearing that Intel's code name (note: not actual product name) for a new processor was Tanglewood was not that the music folks had anything to do with the offering. Who would think that a music festival would be endorsing a processor - and if they were, who would actually care? However, the lawyers at Tanglewood were concerned, and rather than fight it, Intel has changed the code name of the chip to Tukwila, keeping with their theme of code naming projects after locations in the Pacific Northwest.

Jazz can't get arrested on Main Street. 08/21/2004 08:20 PM
All Hail the New Jazz! Getting slightly bored with pop and looking to expand your horizons? Can't believe the musty Burns/Marsalis version is all there is to jazz? Try the "avant jazz" tradition whose central figures are the amazing bassist William Parker (so big and strong I've seen him pick up a bass and play it like a fiddle), David S. Ware (to my mind the greatest tenorman since Trane—see him live and you'll never forget it), and pianist Matthew Shipp (a frequent collaborator of both). Want a convenient guide to their recordings, with brief descriptions and (tacky but useful) letter grades? Here ya go—Tom Hull has great taste, and if he gives a record an A you can be sure it's worth hearing (and he gives you fair warning about somebody like Peter Brötzmann, who "sounds more like late Coltrane run through a blender by Einstürzende Neubauten: great heaps of noise unleavened by conventional musical signposts").

Some basic command line tips, just for
jazz

Some basic command line tips, just for
jazz 04/04/2005 09:25 PM
Here are a few command-line tips, some basic stuff that I use regularly but that novices may not have discovered yet:

open

The open command is cool because it bridges the Terminal and GUI worlds. From its man page: “The open command opens a file (or a directory or URL), just as if you had double-clicked the file’s icon.”

Say you’re in your home folder in Terminal, and you decide you want to open the folder in the Finder. Type open . (and hit return). The Finder comes to front with the current folder open. (You can of course also specify a folder, as in open /usr/share/calendar)

But open also opens other things. For instance, you could launch Chess like this:

open /Applications/Chess.app

Or launch a URL in your default browser:

open 'http://example.org/'

Or open a file:

open path/to/some/file

Aside about tab completion

Typing the above command open /Applications/Chess.app doesn’t look easy, actually. But here’s what I type when I do it:

op[tab] /A[tab]Ch[tab]

Tab completion is your friend. Without it, using Terminal would be unbearable.

pushd/popd: snapback for directories

You know snapback, right, in Safari? How you can snap back to a previous page?

You can do something similar with directories in Terminal. Say you’re some place odd, and you have have to go somewhere else, but then you want to come back easily.

Instead of just doing a cd to someplace else, use pushd, as in pushd /some/other/directory. When you’re finished in some-other-directory—when you want to snap back to where you were—type popd.

(It’s actually a stack, but I’m not going to explain that right now. Plus, most of the time I myself just use it as a quick snap-back feature rather than as a stack.)

What day of the week is the 23rd?

I myself don’t have iCal running all the time. And questions like this come up from time to time—what day of the week is the 23rd? What’s the date of the last Tuesday of this month?

These questions can be easily answered with a quick look at a basic calendar for the current month. Type cal and hit return. Easy.

Quickly view a text file

Say there’s a text file and you just want to view it—you don’t need to edit it or anything.

Type less filename (or less /path/to/file).

Less is a fast and easy-to-use text file viewer. Hit the space bar to scroll down. Type b to scroll backwards. Type q to quit. Type h for help. Type /, followed by a search string and the return key, to search for something.
